/* ===== GALLERY GROWTH BANNER — "night-sky celebration" =====
   Redesigned (2026-07-02): dropped the pink→teal gradient shift
   (poor text contrast, read as "lame"). Now a deep-navy night sky
   with a readable frosted-glass card and a dense field of twinkling
   stars (white / yellow / teal) pulsing at independent rates plus
   occasional firework bursts — a joyful celebration of growth. All
   text is large and high-contrast (white on navy). */
